UC Editor – Dynamic Power Reduction UCs or utility companies can prescribe feed-in limits for an inverter (e.g., max. 70% of the kWp or max. 5 kW). Dynamic power reduction takes into account self-consumption in the household before the power of an inverter is reduced: An individual limit can be set. A counter for determining self-consumption per S0 can be connected directly to the inverter (Fronius Galvo and Fronius Symo only). A Fronius Smart Meter can be connected to Fronius Datamanager 2.
